Intraoral scanners have transformed modern dentistry, but simply owning a scanner does not create a digital workflow. A scan can look complete while critical information is missing. Software can make an uncertain surface look convincing. A laboratory can receive a case in seconds and still be forced to guess what the clinician actually wants.
Scan Smarter is a practical guide to the complete journey of digital information: from the patient, through the clinic, scanner, software and laboratory, into design and manufacture, and ultimately back to the patient again.
Drawing on more than twenty years of experience across dental technology, laboratories, clinical training, digital dentistry and artificial intelligence, the book explores the problems that occur in the gaps between people and systems.
Inside, you will learn how to:
This is not a scanner manual and it is not a catalogue of technology.
It is a book about judgement, communication, information integrity and the difference between owning digital equipment and running a genuinely digital workflow.
Because the best digital workflow is not the one with the most technology.
It is the one with the least avoidable uncertainty.
